Zomato ties up with Khandani Rajdhani for online ordering

Restaurant discovery and food ordering app Zomato has signed an online ordering tie-up with Khandani Rajdhani, the flagship brand of Mirah Hospitality which predominantly serves Gujarati and Rajasthani thalis.

This partnership will allow users to order Rajdhani's vegetarian thalis through Zomato’s online ordering services. Zomato will be managing the delivery logistics of these thalis through its investee company Grab, and logistics partner Delhivery.

The service will be initially available in Mumbai, Pune, Hyderabad and Bengaluru with more cities being added shortly. Rajdhani currently has 27 outlets across 11 cities in India.

"Given Zomato's commendable presence in the online ordering space and extensive reach in the country we are certain we will be able to reach out to our existing and potential customers. We have served millions of thalis over past 5 decades and as we continue to grow our brand across the country we feel this partnership couldn't have come at a better time for us" said Aji Nair - Chief Operating Officer, F&B Divison, Mirah Hospitality.

Zomato which started its online food delivery service in April, had tied-up with Grab and Delhivery to foray into last-mile delivery business in September last year.

It claims to currently have tie-ups with 12,000 restaurants across 10 cities for its online ordering service, which also includes tie-ups with restaurant chains like Subway, Wendy's, Domino's and Papa John's among others.

"The size of the market is in these cities is small right now and is growing with time. We will re-launch when the time is right. In the meanwhile, we will continue to offer the best content (including scanned menus) to ensure that foodies are able to find and order great food" said Zomato co-founder Pankaj Chaddah.
